USA house prices
Discussion
After reading a couple of posts here about the tumbling hous e prices in USA, I had a look on Ebay.co.uk, and then Ebay.com
Sure enough, there are properties being bank sold, for very little money.
Even owners are selling properties, before the bank repossesses.
Am I right in saying, it is pointless a UK person buying a house there, as we could never be allowed to live there?
By that I mean, even though one would own a property there, it still would not give us the permission needed to live there indefinatly?

In some places banks are bulldozing repossessed houses and giving the plot to the local authority.
You can buy there without too much difficulty, but it's tricky to get permission to settle permanently. There are downsides - the cost of healthcare for example, if you don't have an employer to cover take care of it for you.

I presume that apart from being in a warzone, the above will incurr some kind of property taxes or the like?

Looks like the last owners had a result, getting out before rock-bottom. 
OK, I see what you are saying about teh debt.
However, a lot of them say there is no back taxes, or any thing else.
Then getting back to my first post, and teh question,
If you bought a house there, fully paid 100% could you live there if you were self sufficient, and didn't need to work?

If you want a cheap property in another country you can actually live in, look at Normandy (Northern France)
You can buy a house for like £30-40k in a nice rural setting. Been looking myself. Seems there are some bargains to be had if you dont mind living in the middle of nowhere surrounded by frenchies.
